Freedom Ride

A beautiful day for a 35 miler in the Flint Hills. Unfortunately for me I missed the boat early and had to settle for 3rd. Had an amazing time though. Here is a picture of the winners:

Sunday Ride

No spooking for me on Halloween, but I couldn't have asked for a better day. Headed into town early to see my babies before they went off trick-or-treating for the evening. Then headed down to the shop to join up with some heavy hitters from the Emporia area for a group ride, 7 of us in all. The weather was perfect albeit a bit windy. We had the tailwind for the first half of the ride, but kept the tempo pretty calm knowing that we would have to turn back into it to get home. It was indeed a tough journey back and the wind spread out the group a bit. I needed the hard effort though. After the ride Randy and I settled in for the evening and watched a movie to cap off our Halloween. Looking forward to a pretty calm week, but make sure you join us for the Freedom Ride Gravel Road Race!
